"I don't know whether I found trouble or trouble found me. Whatever the case, trouble and I have been lifelong companions..."Frank Sinatra, Sir Peter Abeles, Jimmy "the Weasel" Fratianno... big celebrities, big business, big mobsters and big politicians, from the famous to the infamous, the cast of characters almost defies the imagination.Looking back on his tumultuous life, Bela Csidei, the "accidental gangster", recalls a story that takes him from a childhood spent "fishing" with explosives and a little freelance arms dealing to holding a promissory note for $250 million dollars. From his survival of war-torn Europe to two contracts on his life, Bela emerges as a genuinely colourful character and an optimistic, loveable rogue. In spite of multi-million dollar business deals gone wrong, a drug bust, a stint as a diplomat and an espionage agent for foreign governments, an explorer for minerals, a banker, a womaniser, a shark hunter and a Mafia conduit for Australian big business, Bela has lived to spin a great yarn. As he says, "With this book a few less people will die wondering..."

In the late 1950s as the dust was still settling from the destruction caused by World War II. The only way for a young man to get ahead was to bend the rules on both sides of the law and never back down to anyone or anything. A young man such as this emerged from the poverty-stricken streets of the industrial heartland, a man that would change the face of Birmingham forever. Eddie Fewtrell controls Birmingham's nightlife with an iron glove. But his path to success isn't an easy one. Deadly, gangland confrontations, family betrayals, and assassination attempts by two of the country's most infamous gangsters, the Kray twins, all threaten to topple the crown from the head of the self-proclaimed, King of Clubs, in this desperate battle for power over Great Britain's second city. The most controversial books ever to be written about Birmingham's history, and for the first time under one cover, parts one to three of the Accidental Gangster covering the 1960s to the 1980s including a special factual section and photographs covering the background to the stories and legends are here in this limited edition, trilogy hardback.

Who am I? My name is Orlando "Ori" Spado and they call me "The Mob Boss of Hollywood."In my forty plus years in Hollywood I have met a lot of people, many of whom I've forgotten and many more who are long gone. Imagine a boy from a small town in upstate New York watching television as a youngster and then meeting those actors and actresses in person as an adult. I knew Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Jerry Lewis, Don Rickles, Red Skelton, Connie Stevens and many more. I ended up doing favors for some of them and sometimes spoke to other people on their behalf.I sometimes ask myself why I can't just be a normal person and live a normal life. But at the end of the day I know I would not trade my life. I am what I was born to be.

Cash, cars, bars and stars: Generation 'Del Boy' has come to town. Seeds planted by the eight Fewtrell brothers back in the poverty-stricken days of the 1960s have finally grown into towering money trees and Eddie Fewtrell has the greenest fingers of them all. Twenty years of underworld in-fighting are finally over, and the road to riches lies before him. All he has to do is walk the straight and narrow, but the road is littered with debris from his past. Mistakes, betrayal and revenge, lay like man traps along the road to success ready to snap their metal jaws shut and crush his dreams for the future. The 1980s; greed is good, racial tensions high and violent, football hooliganism fills the TV screens of Great Britain. A time when Eddie Fewtrell attempts to leave his gangster past behind him and finally flourish in to the businessman he always knew he should be. Declaring himself King of Clubs, his crown sits precariously on his head, will this be the decade it finally falls?

Welcome to Prohibition and the Roaring Twenties. Meet Goldy Goldfarb, the "Accidental Gangster," who is recruited by Dutch Schultz to run booze for him using his fishing boats based in the Rockaways. The isolation and the miles of unpatrolled beaches made the Rockaway, NY location very desirable for criminal activities. During those years, Goldy delivers the illegal goods to a thirsty American public for his boss. A loyal soldier for a notorious gangster, Goldy carried a gun and often feared for his life. If it wasn't the Treasury Boys after him, it was his fellow gangsters. Learn how an ordinary man became involved in a criminal network. Familiar names from the era are part of the story. There's the Lower East Side contingent of Meyer Lansky, Bugsy Siegel and Lucky Luciano. Goldy's old pals, The Brownsville Boys, are in the novel as well as the mentor to Lansky and Luciano, Arnold Rothstein, a notorious gambler who fixed the 1919 World Series. Based on true events in the life of author Harriet Goodman Grayson's grandfather Goldy.

England is dancing to the sound of fiddle, fife and drum as the 1990's Irish theme pub explosion takes the country by storm. Suddenly on every street corner, failing pubs are being re-branded with shamrocks and shillelaghs into caricatures of the good auld Irish boozer and Birmingham is no exception. The Brummie Irish are stepping out to the gaelic reels and jigs spilling from every pub doorway but all is not what it seems. Somewhere beneath the shamrock's shadow, the Birmingham I.R.A are calling the tune. The cash cow known as 'The Cause' is dying on its feet because of the ever-present threat of peace in the six counties of Northern Ireland, leaving I.R.A. members without the lucrative income they've become accustomed to. Now the ex-paramilitaries turn their attention to grabbing as much cash as possible before the whole republican movement gets snubbed out by peace. Davey Keogh works the music circuit, playing Irish songs and tunes to the ever-growing crowds, packing the city's theme pubs to the rafters. After a chance meeting with a mysterious blonde at one of his gigs, the hapless musician is drawn into Birmingham's shadowy underworld, where Godfather gangsters rule like Kings, Irish assassins stalk the guilty and romance could turn out to be a very deadly affair.
